Keeill Chiggyrt Cross Slab (Manx Cross 163)
Archaeology
This rectangular slab was found at Keeill Chiggyrt (IOMHER 0558.00). It bears a cross of unusual design, the cross being formed between four sunken squares. In W. W. Gill's 'A Manx Scrapbook' (1929), Keeill Chiggyrt is recorded as the chapel to which the nearby holy well Chibber y Woirrey belonged, and local tradition held that priests were buried there.
